I feel you, my epilepsy friend. I'm so sorry you deal with that! I have photosensitive seizures along with my others, and those mofos aren't well controlled yet (workin' on it with treatment trials), and it helps to wear my ultra-filtered polarized, darkened lenses when out at night, especially, but it's still the shittiest gamble, if I won't just be suddenly noping out mid-sentence in the car (my spouse does any driving, I obviously can not, haha). Still the damn stabbing pain, though, jesus christ.

Can someone also explain 'go brrr', cause I just think of vibrating doorstop springs, but that can't be right...

Jesus christ I hate that I heard this in my head and then remembered that whole fucking song. That's some good shitposting, @TPM.

I mean, I'd respond positively to this shrext. But I love onions.

I wish this was more talked about, when people mention classic sci-fi. I'm an avid SF reader, particularly older stuff, and it could almost be a drinking game of how few pages it'll take before you find an offensively outdated reference, no matter how great the book. But every time I've picked up a Heinlein, hoping to find more positive points in classic stuff, I'm left just...feeling ooky. An easy example being the lesser known Friday, with the "happy" part of the extremely unrealistic female protagonist's journey: marrying one of her gang-rapists. I haven't been able to make a dent in my stack of Heinlein's since that nonsense. Too many other great and interesting authors that weren't horrid shitbags.

Deep crossover. So silly. I love it.

Two XRA memes, and recently someone made a Peter Potamus reference with their AI image post, and...and...I'm home. Thanks, guys. 🥲❤️

Mashup memes you can hear 👍

Heh. Take THAT, Catholics! Oh, if theses were Reeses...

In case anyone wants to know more!

Barring any issues that could have brought her in certain circumstances, that's adorable! How nice to have something immediately positive to wake up to, besides the post-surgery uncomfortable everything else. I was very happy to learn that our state is one of the few that's thankfully outlawed got-dang pelvic examinations under general anesthesia, unless they have specific prior consent - with some of the things US teaching hospitals allow, I'd be down for some unethical unconscious skincare.

Neat, that's legitimately interesting! Maybe you have something unique in your physiology that gives you a different perspective? I'm pushing 6 surgeries under general, and around 5 precedures under IV, probably missing some numbers with my now shoddy memory forming capabilities, but my experiences with the knockout sedation could be described much more similarly to your experience, and a few of the IV sedations weren't as deep, so I remember a bit more of the "in and out", but mostly it's just "Oh, yeah, I feel there's a change in my coherence-BLACKOUT", and then next awareness is recovery room beeps.

I could easily spew up the angry contents of the rabbit holes that are lobotomies, and their horror, but yeah, I also agree that that's a weird reaction. I chuckled. I may have to reserve your comment for my next intake at the neurologist, depending on the vibe in the room (but also not, cause those folks professionally monitor how well my brain is functioning lol)

Proper explanation, indeed - you never get all the way through the countdown before you time travel. Beforehand, though (at least in my too many to count without it sounding like a weird brag experiences), the "last words" moment is before the mask, but after the pre-anesthesia. Depends on the procedure, and probably the person, too.

Much appreciated! I sure as heck hope that, too, haha - my username is mostly related to my epilepsy, and how my oodles of seizures make me feel. Just...various, classic Windows error "bonk!" sounds, amongst other glitches, but in ma' brain.

Then I'm glad I know my entire team, going in, and they're all remarkably empathetic to their terrified, high-risk patient! Chances are, any final words through twilight sleep will be a last sentiment to my spouse, in case I don't make it through. After my tight-five, of course, using the IV pole as a mic.

This gives me a sense of satisfaction by proxy.

My surgeons are cool, but I don't think they're that cool... The robot might be, though...
